Kalavryta Ski Centre

What it is

What the map and open data show, with the source of each row. The page name is based on the name OpenStreetMap gives the winter-sports area (landuse=winter_sports) and the label of Wikidata item Q12886103.

Opening times and season, prices and snow conditions change and we do not know them; this page does not state them. Ask the operator before a visit.

Lifts by kind

The lifts are lines tagged aerialway in OpenStreetMap. Each length was measured along the lift's mapped line; it is not the lift's official length or vertical rise. 4.2 km in all.

Pistes by difficulty

The pistes are lines tagged piste:type in OpenStreetMap and the difficulty is what the mappers wrote (piste:difficulty), not the centre's own grading. The length was measured on OpenStreetMap's lines: a piste mapped twice is counted twice, and a piste mapped as an area (no line) is not counted.

Sled: 1 run, 0.1 km. Other mapped lines (connections, snow park, children's area, skating, ski touring), not counted above: 1. Pistes mapped as areas, with no length: 10.

Heights and the mountain

Only heights that a source gives are shown. Most lifts carry no height tag on the map, so no vertical drop of the pistes is given.

Where it lies and which settlements are near

The municipality comes from the municipal boundaries of OpenStreetMap. Distances are in a straight line, not driving distances; on a mountain the road is usually much longer.

The page's point is in the municipality of Aigialeia; lifts and pistes also lie in the municipalities of Aigialeia and Kalavryta.

Nearest villages and towns

OpenStreetMap gives no height for these settlements, so no height difference is worked out.

What is protected

Natura 2000 sites that cover part of the mapped lifts and pistes (checked at points along the lines). Each page describes the habitats and species of the site.

• Oros Chelmos Kai Ydata StygosGR2320002
• Oros Chelmos (Aroania) - Farangi Vouraikou Kai Periochi KalavrytonGR2320013

Lying in a Natura 2000 site means special assessment procedures apply to projects and activities; this page does not judge what is permitted on a particular plot.

Nearest airport

In a straight line from the centre's point, not a driving distance or a journey time. This page does not describe roads, snow chains or transfers.

Daylight

Sunrise and sunset at the point the map shows, for the 15th of each month, in Greek time (Europe/Athens). Calculated with the standard solar-geometry formula for a flat horizon; terrain and cloud are not taken into account. On north-facing slopes or under a summit the shade comes earlier.

Climate of the nearest settlement

This section is about Kalavryta, the nearest settlement with a page, not about the pistes, which lie higher. It says nothing about snow.

NASA POWER (MERRA-2), period 2001–2020, model cell about 21 km from the settlement (a grid of about 50 km). Monthly averages from a regional model, not station readings and not a forecast.

Mountain safety

In an emergency call 112, the European emergency number. For information, training and the mountaineering clubs, the federation is the Hellenic Mountaineering and Climbing Federation (ΕΟΟΑ).

What this page does not say

This page states no opening dates, hours, prices, tickets, snow conditions or season. These change every year and only the operator knows them. The lifts and pistes shown are those volunteers have mapped in OpenStreetMap: some may be missing, removed or not running this season.

How the facts were put together

The lifts and pistes are OpenStreetMap lines (ODbL, Geofabrik snapshot 24 Sep 2026, processed 10 Oct 2026): lifts tagged aerialway (chair, drag, T-bar, platter, gondola, cable car, magic carpet, rope tow) and pistes tagged piste:type (downhill, cross-country, sled). A centre groups those inside the winter-sports area (landuse=winter_sports) or within 2,000 m of it; those that belong to no area are grouped when a point of one line lies within 2,000 m of a point of another. A centre has a page when it has a name that a source supports (the map or Wikidata), a point in a Greek municipality and at least 2 lifts or 2 km of mapped piste.

The length of each lift and piste is the length of its line on the map, worked out on the original OpenStreetMap nodes; it is neither the official length nor the vertical drop. The difficulty is the mappers' piste:difficulty tag. A height appears only where a station or lift end carries an ele tag, or a Wikidata item has an elevation. The operator and website appear only where OpenStreetMap writes them; we never open an operator's website.

Wikidata (Q12886103, CC0, 10 Oct 2026) gives labels, Wikipedia links and an elevation where there is one; we copy no text from it.

The towns, mountains, trails and airports are pages of this site; distances are in a straight line, not road kilometres. The mountain is the nearest peak with a page within 10 km of the centre's point, huts are within 10 km and a trail appears when its line passes within 4 km. The page's point is the mapped lift end or piste start nearest the middle of the centre.
